Check engine light P010B

I had a check engine light come on. Code is p010B. I switched the MAF from side to side and the light came back on. I'm not sure where to go from here.

Long story short the left air filter is a stock replacement and the right is a k&n. Could that be a problem?

Yeah, it is. You need two new K&N filters. OR, get ONE more, then clean and mist both of them, same time. The airflow between the two MAFs has t be within each other by a tight margin.

What do you mean 'mist'? Is that when you put the grease around the egde of the filter? I've never understood the point of that.

You lightly spray the filter with filter oil.

UPDATE
I replaced the k&n filter on the right with a paper filter to match the left side. It's been a week and the light hasn't came back on. Hope this helps others with the same problem.
